I’m scheduled for a breast augmentation soon. The surgeon suggested a 255cc - 295cc round gummy implant. I’m a deflated A-B cup now after having children. I’m worried anything under 300cc will not give me the full C cup I want. I have curvy hips and want my top body to match my curves for more of an hour glass shape. Is there a reason a surgeon would suggest a small implant?
Answer: Implant size Different surgeons have varying opinions on what implant size to use. The most common size use is in the mid 300’s and I almost never exceed 500z

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Small Implant There are several guidelines that help to select an adequate imolant size, those are based in anatomical measurments. In accordance to patient's anatomy there are some recommendations in terms of implant size, implant profile, pocket etc. Probably your surgeon recommends you the size based on those guidelines in order to get the best outcome.

Answer: Implant selection One of the criteria when selecting an implant is the breast width. The implant must be able to fit the breast space. It may be that your width is narrow. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon. It is important that you feel comfortable and confident in your surgical plan.

Answer: Breast augmentation sizing Thank you for your question. Unfortunately it is difficult to answer without at least pictures, however, if you’re anatomy is amenable a larger implant is perfectly normal and OK to have. It’s best to have a consultation and preferably undergo 3-D imaging to look at your visualized postoperative outcome.
